What to Do When the Driving Test Expires?

If you fail to obtain a driver's license within the specified period, you will need to retake the course. The validity period of the driving skill test permit is three years, and applicants must complete the subject two and subject three tests within this period. If the tests are not completed within the validity period, the passed subjects will be invalidated. If an applicant cannot attend the scheduled test for any reason, they must apply to cancel the appointment at least one day in advance. If the applicant fails to attend the test at the scheduled time, the test will be marked as a failure. More details are as follows: 1. Each subject test can be taken once, and if failed, a retake is allowed. If the retake is not attended or still results in failure, the current test session will be terminated, and the applicant must reschedule the test. However, subject two and subject three tests can only be rescheduled after ten days. If the subject three safety and civilized driving knowledge test is failed, the passed road driving skill test scores remain valid. 2. During the validity period of the driving skill test permit, the number of scheduled tests for subject two and subject three road driving skills must not exceed five times. If the fifth scheduled test still results in failure, all previously passed subjects will be invalidated.
I just encountered this situation - the expiration of the driver's license exam validity period can be quite troublesome. Last year when I enrolled in driving school, my Subject 2 exam wasn't completed yet when it was about to expire, which really panicked me at the time. I immediately contacted the driving school, and the instructor said if it expires, the exam qualification would become invalid, requiring re-enrollment from scratch. The renewal process is simple: first consult with the DMV or driving school about extension, bring your ID card and old registration form, then pay about 100 yuan to renew and extend. If delayed, you'd have to re-enroll and retake all exams from Subject 1 to 4, which takes more time and costs extra money. I suggest you act immediately - prepare one or two weeks before the expiration date to avoid future hassles. You can set phone reminders normally and follow the DMV's official account to check progress.
